## About this tender

NHS England Specialised Commissioning London Region would like to commission a provider of clinical audit services to deliver a project relating to counting and coding practices in Acute Trusts in London.

For the financial year 2017-18, a number of major NHS England London Area Team acute contracts are financially over performing by significant sums, above the agreed contract plan values developed and populated by Trusts, at the beginning of the financial year.

While some areas of the over performance are driven by activity increases and include known and agreed adjustment items for payment to Trusts, a number of areas appear to be driven by average unit price increases across multiple service lines at more than one NHS Trust that require further independent investigation in line with the NHS Standard contract. In particular General Condition 15.8:

The Co-ordinating Commissioner may at any time appoint an Auditor to conduct an objective and impartial audit of:

15.8.1 the quality and outcomes of any Service; and/or

15.8.2 the Provider's recording and coding of clinical activity; and/or

15.8.3 the Provider's calculation of reconciliation accounts under SC36 (Payment Terms).

NHS England is seeking quotations from a number of suppliers. Please be aware due to the nature of this work we are looking for a speedy response to carrying out the work and would expect any organisation to begin provision as soon as possible after the signing of the contract.

Interested providers should download the attached Request For Quote (RFQ) documents and must complete and return the requested documents to  no later than 12.00 (noon) on Wednesday 28th February 2018.

This service will be provided under the NHS Standard Terms and Conditions for the Provision of Services.

The maximum value of this contract is Â£50,000 (ex VAT).

In order to ensure you are included on any email communications relating to any amendments to the documentation or responses to clarification questions, please send an email confirming your interest in bidding for this contract to  as soon as possible. Please title your email confirming interest with the following subject header: "PRJ614\_Confirmation of interest". Please note if you do not send this email you may not receive relevant updates. For the avoidance of doubt this "confirmation of interest" email does not constitute a submission and bidders must complete and return the documentation as instructed via email before the stated deadline for their quotation to be considered.
